Welcome to Set Apart Daughters, a proud member of the set of partners podcast. I'm your host in East Copeland. So excited that you're joining me on this week's episode where you will be empowered, encouraged,

and equipped to become the woman that God has greeted you to be. Now, if you heard my last episode, you know, we were at a hotel, right? We're still in a hotel. But I got to share with you

my vulnerability and my struggle at first, but how God really just changed my heart and perspective on things

and has caused me to be uncomfortable so that I can take comfort in God himself. And so today,

I wanted to keep talking about kind of like the same thing a little bit, but, you know,

talking about being patient, right?

Patient in trials, because they are going to come in our lives.

And how we respond to it says a lot and can really affect our outlook on life and really where we stand in our faith with God.

So I want to share a scripture from Romans chapter 12 verse 12.

And it says, be joyful and hope patient and

affliction and faithful and prayer um so be joyful and hope having being joyful and hope and

hoping and knowing that there is something much more better and greater that is to come right that could

be the when j Jesus comes back for his

second coming or whatever it is that he has in store for us. And being patient and affliction,

and there's a part in the scripture that affliction and being patient produces other

character qualities in our faith. It can produce like perseverance and endurance

and all these amazing things that are needed and essential in our walk with God. And being

faithful in prayer, being faithful in prayer is so important because prayer is literally

how we connect to God. We talk to God through prayer, right?

Prayer strengthens us and gets us ready for battle.

And all of our battles are won in prayer, to be quite honest.

And so when we are praying to God, we are submitting all of our requests.
